[directfb-dev] GTK+ 2.14 and directFB

[Sriram Neelakandan]

The GTK backend logic changed some time around 2.13
(http://mail.gnome.org/archives/gtk-devel-list/2008-February/msg00099.html)
And this ( (http://bugzilla.gnome.org/attachment.cgi?id=122159&action=view)
patch was an attempt to revive the broken GTK/DFB backend
But even after this patch .. there are issues (see this -
http://www.nabble.com/Unable-to-run-gtk-demo-for-gtk%2B-2.14.6-with-DirectFB-:-help!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!-td21289822.html)

Now , i am not sure if these have been resolved with 2.14.7-2 ?
